Best Tires for the Genesis G70

The Genesis G70 is the sport sedan from Hyundai Motor Group premium brand — available with RWD or AWD, a 2.0T turbocharged four-cylinder or a 3.3T twin-turbo V6, and a genuine sport suspension tune. It competes against the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes C-Class at a lower price point with aggressive Korean value. Tire selection should match the G70 sport intent.

Genesis G70 tire sizes

The G70 2.0T uses 225/50R17 on 17-inch standard wheels. The Sport and 3.3T trim on 18-inch wheels uses 225/45R18. The Sport Package with 19-inch wheels uses 225/40R19 front and 245/35R19 rear — a staggered fitment on the sport package.

Verify your exact configuration on the door sticker. The AWD variant uses a slightly different rear suspension geometry, but shares the same tire sizes.
